svn import -> invalid url
Hi list,
I run svn 0.26 under winnt4.0.
The repository was successfully created:
$ svnadmin create /dat/svn/test
Now I try to import a directory the structure is:
/test/foo
|
+--- 1.txt
So I try:
$ svn import file:///dat/svn/test /test
The error message is:
$ svn: Client error in parsing arguments
$ svn: invalid url '/test'
Whats my mistake?
I found the same question at the FAQ - but it was not helpful.
ciao ...
Manfred

The syntax changed a while ago. This file obviously needs to be
updated.

I've fixed it now -- thanks for pointing out the problem. (It's
"README", not "readme.txt", by the way :-) .)

Hi Martin,
fine that works :-) It's simple and logical!!
So the readme.txt from the distribution is wrong:
----- schnipp
IV. QUICKSTART GUID
...
2. Creating a Repository
...
After the repository is created, you can initially import data
into it, using libsvn_ra_local (invoked by using a 'file' URL):
$ svn import file:///usr/local/svn/repos1 some/local/dir/
The above example imports the contents of some/local/dir/ right
into the root of the repository.

Realy a pitfall for newbies like me.
thank you !

should be correct
